Last week I came across an article announcing the acceptance of a new Law of Nature. I thought this was pretty exciting! It was so exciting that I copied the link to the article and sent it to my brother and sisters. A couple of days later during our weekly family Zoom call, my […]
As a few of you may have noticed, I was out of the office last Thursday and Friday. That is because I was up in the Washington State Cascade range with my son, Devon. To be supportive of getting out into nature and just letting go and relaxing, I should say that we were […]
In today’s newsletter, I want to discuss a powerful concept that applies to both life and health. A common description I use when talking to a patient about exercising an injured joint is to stretch the joint up to the edge of pain; not into pain but just to the edge. This simple phrase […]

When I say common, I mean two-thirds of us probably have this. This nastiness is one of the underlying causes of obesity, heart disease, and diabetes. This is […]

The world simply does not conduct its business in ways that make sense to us. We might nod and say we understand that selfishness, greed, and corruption […]
This last week I had a couple of patients who were not doing as well as I expected on their follow-up visit. With both, I had recommended using hot and cold on the inflamed area at least once each day. They had not done this. The 110-degree days may have had something to do […]
